Northern Utah was in many ways a Crossroads long before the emigrants, settlers, railroad and military came here. As early as pre-Fremont Native Americans, we find evidence of trails and trade routes across this geographic area. The trappers and traders, both English and American, knew the area and crisscrossed it following many of the Native American trails. They also established new routes. Explorers sought additional routes to avoid natural barriers such as the mountains and the Great Salt Lake. As emigrants and settlers traveled west, knowledge of the area spread. The Crossroads designation was permanently established once the Railroad spanned the nation.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTIIRIOR FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE SYSTEM BEAR RIVER MIGRATORY BIRD REFUGE Brigham City, Utah ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT Calendar Year 1990 REVIEW AND APPROVALS REFUGE MANAGER DATE U GE SUPERVISOR REVIEW , ^ DA REGIONAL OFFICE APPROVAL D^TE X INTRODUCTION The Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge is located in Box Elder County, 15 miles west of Brigham City, in northwestern Utah. It was established by a special act of Congress on April 23, 1928. At the time, many individuals and organizations were concerned about the loss of marsh habitat and waterfowl mortality. In 1843, explorer John C. Fremont described the multitudes of waterfowl at the Bear River delta. As settlement of the Salt Lake valley progressed, market hunting of waterfowl flourished. From 1877 to about the turn of the century, 2 00,000 ducks were harvested each year and sold to eastern hotels and restaurants. During the same period, residents were concerned with the devastating losses to avian botulism. In the 1900's, 50 to 70 percent of the waterfowl stopping to rest and feed died of the disease. Millions of dead birds lied scattered in the marshes - a gruesome spectacle. About the same time, large quantities of river water were diverted for farming, and the delta marshes began to dry. By 1920, about 2 to 3 thousand acres of marsh remained of the original 45,000. The Bear River Refuge comprises 65,000 acres of marsh, open water, and mud flats, which are managed for use by migratory birds.

As you know the report is now being reviewed by federal agencies and the governors of the basin states. Under the Flood Control Act of 1944, they have approximately until May 1, 1951, to submit their comments to the Secretary of the Interior for subsequent submission with the report to the President and the Congress.

  • Colorado River Slideshow Title TK
    The Colorado River: Lifeline of the Southwest { The Headwaters The Colorado River begins in the Rocky Mountains at elevation 10,000 feet, about 60 miles northwest of Denver in Colorado. The Path Snow melts into water, flows into the river and moves downstream. In Utah, the river meets primary tributaries, the Green River and the San Juan River, before flowing into Lake Powell and beyond. Source: Bureau of Reclamation The Path In total, the Colorado River cuts through 1,450 miles of mountains, plains and deserts to Mexico and the Gulf of California. Source: George Eastman House It was almost 1,500 years ago when humans first tapped the river. Since then, the water has been claimed, reclaimed, divided and subdivided many times. The river is the life source for seven states – Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming – as well as the Republic of Mexico. River Water Uses There are many demands for Colorado River water: • Agriculture and Livestock • Municipal and Industrial • Recreation • Fish/Wildlife and Habitat • Hydroelectricity • Tribes • Mexico Source: USGS Agriculture The Colorado River provides irrigation water to about 3.5 million acres of farmland – about 80 percent of its flows. Municipal Phoenix Denver About 15 percent of Colorado River flows provide drinking and household water to more than 30 million people. These cities include: Las Vegas and Phoenix, and cities outside the Basin – Denver, Albuquerque, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico. Recreation Source: Utah Office of Tourism Source: Emma Williams Recreation includes fishing, boating, waterskiing, camping and whitewater rafting in 22 National Wildlife Refuges, National Parks and National Recreation Areas along river.

CHL a quantification outcome of eutrophication. Eutrophication adversely Detection and quantification of chlorophyll a (CHL a) impacts the biological, physical, chemical and aesthetic has proven to be an effective way to assess the presence of components of a water body. It usually occurs due to algae in a water body [8]. Since algae have chlorophyll as increased rate of nutrient loading in the form of nitrogen their primary photosynthetic pigment, CHL a quantification and phosphorous. This study presents a comparative will provide useful information for measuring algal analysis of algae vulnerable lakes/waterbodies in Utah population density in a water body.
